    The alt text is “We all do this a bit tbf,” and I wanted to respond to that. If you keep the milk out of the fridge just while you’re using it, that’s a big difference from a person who leaves the milk out for several days and then puts it back in the fridge.

    It’s useful to start by saying, “I’m going to stick with my previous beliefs.” Otherwise, it would be very difficult to learn anything, if you just constantly start from zero. So, we do “all do this a bit.” But I don’t think that’s a defense at all for a person who resolutely refuses to learn anything new.
